Disappointed
Pros:

Location excellent for purpose of visiting Grand Rapids

Cons:

For the price of the room @ $439 per night, there were NO amenities you would hope to expect. No parking on site but no valet service. Room was sparce, basic tv channels and tv had terrible sound & clarity. Walls very thin hearing connecting rooms tv & noice all night. No free offerings -even COFFEE- for breakfast...which cost $20 per person...which was no more than most hotels offer as complimentary.

Overall nice
Pros:

The location was perfect for our stay. My partner and I didn’t try the breakfast, but we did notice that coffee was $3 and didn’t come with lids, which was a bit inconvenient. Parking was also $30, which we weren’t too happy about, and breakfast was priced at $19.

Aside from those extra costs, we had a great experience overall. The bed was very comfortable, and the room was clean and well-maintained.

Cons:

Paying for parking

Location couldn’t be beat for downtown fun!
Pros:

Great location! We were in walking distance to restaurants and entertainment downtown.

Cons:

There was no complimentary coffee in the morning in the lobby area. We were leaving early and I would have loved a cup of coffee before hitting the road. I’ve rarely stayed at a hotel that didn’t offer coffee to its patrons,even the less expensive ones.

Welcoming staff, clean rooms, great location
Pros:

Great location in downtown Grand Rapids with the art museum next door. Easy to walk around. We live in nyc so we had no problem walking to restaurants and bars on the other side of the river. The area is quiet and not very busy (we were there on a weekday).
The room was so clean, modern, and fresh!
Shout out to Justin in the front desk for just so warm, friendly, welcoming, and just awesome! Shout out to Jose at the bar for recommending restaurants and bars!
Would def stay again.

Cons:

Not that we didn’t like it, but just a note to people with cars, the parking lot that’s in front of the hotel is NOT their parking lot. The parking for the hotel is shared with the JW Marriott, which is only a 4 min drive and walk away. Park your car there, get the ticket, give it to the front desk when checking in and they’ll add it to your bill. You can drive in and out of the garage at the flat rate of $29.
